The wish of adventurous and sports-loving 11-year-old Derek, is to go fishing in Alaska. As a proud supporter of Make-A-Wish, Subaru is honored to sponsor this wish for such an inspirational and resilient child. \n\nDerek, who was diagnosed with liver failure, learned that his wish to go to Alaska with his family will come true this spring during a surprise wish reveal ceremony at Subaru WinterFest - a lifestyle expo that stops at some of the best mountains across the country and features free ski and snowboard lessons/demos, and interactive experiences for families and winter enthusiasts. This 2014 - 2015 ski season, Subaru will hold fourteen Subaru WinterFest events at resorts across the country. \n\nFor Derek, the mountain-man-in-training, it was a special and memorable moment as he discovered through clues popping up around the Snowbird Village that he and his family would soon be venturing to Alaska to see mystic-blue glaciers and catch salmon.\n\n“We are extremely honored to work with Make-A-Wish Utah to help reveal and ultimately grant Derek’s one true wish,” said Tim Tagye, promotions and sponsorship manager, Subaru of America, Inc. “It was really special to be a part of revealing his wish in such an exciting way at the Subaru WinterFest event.

Media and guests at Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort were also invited to join in on the reveal celebration.\n\n“We are excited to grant Derek and his family the opportunity to experience the beautiful wilderness of Alaska,” said Jared Perry, CEO of Make-A-Wish® Utah. “Make-A-Wish has been making wishes come true for 35 years and has granted more than 254,000 wishes to deserving kids across the country. Here in Utah, we are able to grant three wishes a week to local kids because of help from generous individuals and sponsors like Subaru.” \n\nOver the past four years, Subaru of America, Inc. has been a proud sponsor of Make-A-Wish and has donated more than $4.5 million to help make more than 610 wishes come true. \n\nBoth the Subaru WinterFest event and Derek’s wish reveal will be featured on the Emmy Award-winning television series “World of Adventure”, airing February 21 at 5 pm ET on NBC. An extended version of the wish reveal, in addition to more of Derek’s story, will be released digitally after the show airing onwww.thewoa.com and Subaru’s YouTube channel. \n\nCheck out the excitement behind Derek’s wish reveal by visiting @subaru_USA, @makeawishutah, or by searching hashtag #subarusnow.\n\nAbout Make-A-Wish® Utah\nMake-A-Wish Utah grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy.

Cherry Hill, N.J. - February 16, 2015 - Bolstering its tremendous seven-year sales growth, Subaru’s product line-up is also receiving strong recognition: at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show the company collected no less than four separate awards for its products. \n\nSubaru won the 2015 Kelley Blue Book 5-Year Cost to Own Award for the Brand category. These awards are based on Kelley Blue Book’s 5-Year Cost to Own data for new cars for the initial five-year ownership period. \n\nMotorweek awarded the all-new 2015 Legacy its Drivers' Choice Award for Best Family Sedan. Each year, MotorWeek editorial staff selects the best models in a variety of lifestyle categories ranging from family sedan to luxury car, to large utilities and pickups. From that group, an overall best of the year is chosen. \n\nU.S. News and World Report gave Subaru its 2015 Best SUV for the Money award for the best-selling Outback. To find the award winners, U.S. News combines the average price paid from TrueCar, Inc. and five-year total cost of ownership data from Vincentric, LLC with their rankings data. The U.S. News rankings are based on the opinion of the automotive press about a car's performance, interior features and interior comfort, along with reliability and safety ratings.\n\nConsumer Guide® Automotive awarded the Subaru BRZ with a “Best Buy Award” in the Sporty/Performance Car category. This is the second consecutive win for the BRZ in the category. Editors of Consumer Guide® Automotive test drive more than 150 new vehicles each year and select the top ones in each class as Best Buys. A vehicle does not become a Best Buy based solely on objective ratings; it also has to distinguish itself as being a good dollar value compared to others in the class.\n\nThe awards given to the Legacy model in particular cap a strong launch for the all-new 2015 model which has earned attention from media writers for its much improved interior, entertainment and connectivity, as well as improved ride and handling. Further to its status as an IIHS Top Safety Pick, Legacy was also named "Best Car to Buy 2015" By The Car Connection and “Best New/Redesigned Car $25,000-$30,000” inKiplinger’s Personal Finance Top Picks for 2015.\n\nIn January 2015, Subaru recorded a 24 percent increase over January 2014. These results continue the company’s sales momentum from 2014 where Subaru achieved six consecutive years of record sales and exceeded 500,000 annual sales – a first in company history. \n\nAll seven 2015 Subaru models have Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) awards – two with Top Safety Pick and five with Top Safety Pick+ including the Forester, Legacy, Outback, Impreza, and XV Crosstrek, when equipped with optional EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology. In January, Subaru also earned Kelley Blue Book’s prestigious 2015 Best Resale Value Brand Award and three vehicle segment awards – Compact Car Category: 2015 Subaru Impreza; Sporty Compact Car Category: 2015 Subaru WRX; and Mid-Size Car Category: 2015 Subaru Legacy.
